Psalms 78:59-68 English Revised Version (ERV)

59. When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel:

60. So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he placed among men;

61. And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the adversary's hand.

62. He gave his people over also unto the sword; and was wroth with his inheritance.

63. Fire devoured their young men; and their maidens had no marriage-song.

64. Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.

65. Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine.

66. And he smote his adversaries backward: he put them to a perpetual reproach.

67. Moreover he refused the tent of Joseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim;

68. But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.
